I bought a Krause Mishler and it is of very great help for determining whether people I right when they quote the gold content and or the number of coins issued

In view of the weight of 16 grams versus the required gold weight of 32.5 grams at 900/1000 it is either a copper core clad with gold or a silver core clad with gold
The coin does not look poored but struck by a die
Strange is that a coining mint indicated by A or BB or whatever would have been more realistic and no more problem then the two stars that are left and right of the date now
Very strange counterfeight

I magnified the head
beneath the head is the word COPIA
and the name of the artist Barre
Old copy ? I never had latin but the French for copy is copie
